Oh me goodness! Surprise Surprise! Dad is in the Bishopric! Woot! I could have called that one! In fact if i remember right i might have before i left? :D! that is so awesome! There has been so many changes since i left that its going to be interesting when i get back :D But i think its way cool! Dad that is one of the coolest callings! To get to interview people is amazing! I don't know about temple recommend interviews but baptismal interviews are just awesome! Its so filled with the spirit and the spirit makes the interview so clear. Just remember to not get in the habit of just going over the questions but feeling out the answers. I love them though! I am so excited for you dad! I guess there goes your saying of you do just enough wrong so that you can stay out of the bishopric... LOL! i tell lots of people that too! and now that you are in they are going to have a good laugh. But the cool part is that its not something to dread. You will receive more understanding than you ever have before while you serve especially along side Bishop Crockett he is awesome! But please tell me that you shaved the stash? I sure hope they asked you to shave that thing lol! oh and by the way. If i can throw in a little bit from the missionary stand point of things.. when your in P.E.C. or bishopric meeting be the one who is very missionary minded! it always helps to have the support of the bishopric when you are a missionary cause if you don't well then nothing gets done! that is so cool! DAD you are awesome! you are such an example to me! Seriously! that makes me way happy! just remember no matter how inadequate you feel at times. Whom the Lord calls he qualifies! and you are more than qualified! your awesome! woot! Mom that is awesome that you are so supportive! With football and with bishopric well you better just count on not seeing dad much but i promise you that during the time that dad serves if you just support him and learn as much as you can that you will never be happier! I PROMISE! woot! I am so excited for you guys! This is huge! I absolutely love it! you seriously don't know how happy this makes me! I have been able to see a huge change in you guys since i left! and it makes me so happy! I absolutely love you guys! Thanks for being such great examples to me! you be such great examples to my kids too! and oh boy in this world do they need it! I am very happy right now! The only thing that could make it better is if i dominate in basketball again today :D LOL! which shouldn't be too hard! I had pretty good week! The Lord is blessing us! We are on our way to seeing some great things happen in this ward! thanks for all that you do! I am very excited for you guys! I love you! I will continue to pray for both of you! Take care of yourselves!
